10 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

3

3. The system of claim 1, wherein, for at least one painted image pixel of the plurality of painted image pixels, the at least one processor is configured to determine the painted color of the painted image pixel based on a tint plane adjustment map that defines a difference between a base color of the selected object and a color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel.

4

4. The system of claim 3, wherein the difference between the base color of the selected object and the color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel is based on at least one of a difference of a hue, a difference of a saturation, and/or a difference of a luminosity of the base color of the selected object and the color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel.

5

5. The system of claim 3, wherein the coating and the tint plane adjustment map comprise filter primitives, and wherein the at least one processor is configured to generate the painted image by applying the filter primitives to the original image.

6

6. The system of claim 1, wherein, for at least one painted image pixel of the plurality of painted image pixels, the painted color of the painted image pixel is determined based on both the coating and a color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel if the mask pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel has the first value.

8

8. The method of claim 7, wherein performing the search to detect the plurality of recognized objects in the original image comprises identifying an area of the original image that depicts an object in a class of objects.

9

9. The method of claim 8, wherein performing the search to detect the plurality of recognized objects in the original image further comprises searching the area of the original image that depicts the object in the class of objects to identify boundaries of the object without searching an entire area of the original image to identify the boundaries of the object.

11

11. The method of claim 7, further comprising, for at least one painted image pixel of the second painted image, determining the painted color of the painted image pixel based on a tint plane adjustment map that defines a difference between a base color of the selected object and a color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel.

12

12. The method of claim 11, wherein the difference between the base color of the selected object and the color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel is based on at least one of a difference of a hue, a saturation, and/or a luminosity of the base color of the selected object and the color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel.

13

13. The method of claim 12, wherein the coating and the tint plane adjustment map comprise filter primitives, and wherein rendering the second painted image comprises applying the filter primitives to the original image.

14

14. The method of claim 7, wherein, for at least one painted image pixel of the plurality of painted image pixels, the painted color of the painted image pixel is based on both the coating and a color of the original pixel that corresponds to the painted image pixel.
